Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

Chapter 193 Waking up from memories
"Stay away from Yelena, you brat."

Faced with the warning from old Vladimir who was holding an iron rod hidden in his hand, Wu Qi could only raise his hands and nodded quickly.

"Misunderstanding, this is really a misunderstanding."

Wu Qi's face was stiff, and he quickly rushed to explain to him, but the old Vladimir obviously dismissed such remarks.

Now in the eyes of old Vladimir, Wuqi is basically no different from those gangsters.He looked at Wu Qi with a look of caution and disgust. Old Vladimir had the same attitude towards those gangsters and today's Wu Qi, avoiding them like snakes and scorpions.

But fortunately, a sudden knock on the door outside their house interrupted the stalemate between the two, and also cut off the terrible anger that was burning in the old Vladimir at this time.

Old Vladimir snorted coldly, left Wu Qi and quickly walked out of the house to open the door outside.

This time the person who knocked on the door was an old woman with gray hair and a bamboo basket covered with blue cloth on her arm. After old Vladimir opened the door, her eyes widened unconsciously, like I have never seen so many people.

"Grandma Qin?" Old Vladimir asked softly, fearing that his voice would scare this old woman who was always very kind to him.

"Oh, little Fra, let me bring you some seeds."

The old woman was welcomed into the house and looked at the large group of men in the house with curious eyes, but her eyes were calm and did not contain any fear or fear.

"Grandma Qin, please drink tea..."

Yelina, who was busy on the kitchen table, saw the old woman. She was very happy to take out the tea cup again, and there were tea leaves floating in the green tea soup.

"Oh. Yelena, long time no see, she is really beautiful again."

The old woman's voice rose, and she spoke happily to the father and daughter.

Old Vladimir helped her to the old wooden bench next to the table. The old bench looked very strong and durable, and it made a creaking sound after the old woman sat down.

She lifted up the blue linen cloth covering the basket that was originally slumped on her arms, revealing the bottom full of vegetables and half-bags of black seeds.

The old woman's voice recalled the past, when she no longer cared about the strangers in the room and focused on her little basket.

"Didn't you say a few months ago that you were thinking of reclaiming two acres of land in front of your house so you can grow vegetables..."

The old woman lifted up the gray cloth bag containing the seeds, placed it on the table, and opened the mouth of the bag. In addition to the black seeds, there were several small cloth bags inside.

The old woman told the name of the vegetables that each bag belonged to, and especially told old Vladimir not to forget it.

Then she handed the entire basket over and said very kindly: "The harvest in the field is good today. I'll give you a taste of the vegetables I grew."

After old Vladimir and Yelina took turns thanking her, Yelina took the empty basket and slowly took the old woman's arm and sent the old woman out.

Old Vladimir seemed to cherish these seeds very much. He packed them up neatly and put them in a locked cabinet. When he was holding the cabinet, he even turned to look at Wu with uneasiness. Take a look at this group of riders.

This made Wu Qi curl his lips in dissatisfaction.

……

……

……

The knock on the door rang again, and the memory was cut off, which made Wu Qi's hand grip the silky fabric tighter.

"Wu Qi? Are you there?" A soft female voice sounded, belonging to the woman Wu Qi wanted to see the most.

But at this time, Wu Qi was full of scruples and hesitations. He remained silent, as if the room was empty.

With a click, the door was pushed open.

Yelina looked at Wu Qi who was in the room, and her expression showed that she was not very surprised.It can be said that she had a clear goal this time and came specifically to find Wu Qi.

"Why don't you say anything? Are you in a bad mood?"

Yelina walked to the table with a smile, and turned her dark eyes towards Wu Qi, as if with all kinds of amorous feelings.

The appearance of a foreigner does not look out of place on her body at all, but instead carries a gentle and unassuming strange beauty. Her lips, which are always smiling, seem to be more fragrant than flowers.

His bright eyes fell quietly on Wu Qi. Wu Qi lowered his head in discomfort and straightened his sleeves. He muttered in a low voice and said without confidence: "It's okay..."

He saw Yelena sitting next to him, and Wu Qi could even smell the fragrance on her body, thus recalling his appearance.

Wu Qi has been lowering his head since Yelina entered the room. He...he didn't dare to look at her.

"What is this? Boo?"

Yelina also saw the conspicuous piece of cloth on the table, so she asked softly and brightly.

But Wu Qi's reaction was very excessive. He suddenly covered the exposed corner of the cloth with the linen holding the cloth, as if he didn't want Yelena to see it at all.

Then he put the cloth on the ground beside his feet in a panic, and said hesitantly: "No... nothing?"

Yelina raised her eyebrows, but without asking any further questions, she directly talked about the business of coming to see Wu Qi this time.

"I'm going home, Wuqi..."

Yelena's eyebrows drooped, and her voice was no longer as cheerful as before. Her whole person was full of reluctance and frustration, like a withered flower that had been exposed to the sun.

"What?" Wu Qi's voice suddenly rose an octave. He turned his head, and this time his eyes met Yelina's clean and sad eyes.

"What... why is it so fast?" Wu Qi realized that his voice just now was a bit scary. He softened his voice and asked again, his eyes full of eagerness.

"Dad, he has been urging me... At the end of this month, I have to set off and return home." Yelina explained, pouted, and her eyes were very lonely.

Wu Qi wanted to soothe her sorrow, but - but he didn't know what he wanted?
Ask her to stay?This made Wu Qi feel uncomfortable with his own face, and he knew that old Vladimir had always cared about Yelina, so this worry was normal.

Why should he let her stay?
Wu Qi clenched his fists, but facing Yelina's sad eyes, he didn't say a word after all.

Until Yelena left the room in disappointment and gently closed the door again.

Yelina's figure is no longer in the room, but her smell seems to be still there.

Wu Qi took a deep breath in the lingering fragrance.

He held his head with his hands in despair, feeling that his world, which was already a mess, was now even more of a mess.
